Now Litespeed Powered!

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

We have now installed Litespeed on all shared and reseller servers.

Litespeed is an Apache web server replacement that is proven to server web pages up to 9 times faster and dynamic content up to 2 times faster than Apache.
You should have no compatibility issues with the change and your website should still function as normal – just much faster!

As far as we can tell, we are the first UK hosting company to adopt Litespeed!

SMS Alerts

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

We have recently added the ability to receive SMS messages on certain actions. We currently have this enabled to send you a free SMS message if your client area password is changed, however we will soon be expanding this to overdue invoice notifications, cpanel password changes and much more.

To enable the notifications, add your mobile telephone number, in international format, to the ‘My Details’ page of your client area.

Old Script Finder added to all servers

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

We’ve just added ‘Old Script Finder’ to all cPanel servers.

Old Script finder scans your hosting account in search of out of date scripts and alerts you of newer versions.

Out of date scripts can leave your account open to attack and running the latest software is always recommended. Old Script finder makes it easier for you to view the latest version of any scripts running under your account.

Let us know what you think.

Installatron added to all cPanel servers!

Saturday, May 16th, 2009

We have now added Installatron to all cPanel servers.

Once again, you spoke and we listened. A number of clients commented on how slow Fantastico are at releasing updates which often left your websites running out of date software.

Installatron is a much more up-to-date one click installer with an excellent development and support team behind it. This will also allow us to create custom installers for software that isn’t already added. We’ve already created a WHMCS auto-installer allowing you to install the popular billing software within minutes.

Let us know what you think, do you prefer Installatron over Fantastico?
